[0028] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Example

[0030] As mentioned in the background technology, during geotechnical engineering surveys, the collected soil samples need to be preserved and taken to the laboratory for experimental observation. However, since a large number of sampling bottles 5 are usually provided in the soil preservation box, it is easy for soil or other foreign matter from the survey site to be carried into the preservation box during the process of taking and placing the sampling bottles 5 back and forth, and fall into the receiving hole 4 where the sampling bottles 5 are placed, which is very difficult to clean and may even cause adhesion to the inner wall of the receiving hole 4. Therefore, the inventor has improved and innovated the existing soil sample preservation box during use, and designed a preservation box that is convenient for cleaning the receiving hole 4, which is explained in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0031] In this embodiment, a geotechnical engineering survey soil sample storage box is disclosed, such as Figure 1As shown, the present invention is the same as the prior art in that it includes a preservation box body 1 with an upper opening, the preservation box body 1 is used to preserve the collected soil samples, and a box cover 2 is movably installed on the preservation box body 1. The difference from the prior art is that the existing preservation box adopts a hinged box cover 2, while the present design adopts a box cover 2 that is buckled up and down, and a handle 14 is provided on the upper end of the box cover 2 to facilitate the carrying of the preservation box. The box cover 2 can be completely removed for convenient use with the cleaning component 7 which is the main technical point of the present design, and the box cover 2 is fixed to the preservation box body 1 by a lock 13.

[0032] On the basis of the above structure, a bearing part 3 is arranged in the preservation box body 1. The bearing part 3 is made of rubber insulation material, which is convenient for protecting and insulating the placed sampling bottles 5 to ensure the integrity of the soil samples. The upper end surface of the bearing part 3 is lower than the upper end surface of the preservation box body 1, so that the sampling bottles 5 can be placed in a suitable space. Several accommodating holes 4 are opened on the bearing part 3. The accommodating holes 4 are cylindrical in shape consistent with the sampling bottles 5 and are opened through in the vertical direction, so that several sampling bottles 5 can be placed.

[0033] As one of the main technical points of this solution, a groove 6 is provided on the inner side of the box cover 2, and the position is combined with Figure 2 , and the size of the groove 6 is consistent with the size of the opening end of the preservation box body 1, so that the edge of the box cover 2 can be aligned with the edge of the preservation box body 1, and a plurality of groups of cleaning components 7 are installed in the groove 6, and the number of cleaning components 7 is consistent with the number of accommodating holes 4. The cleaning components 7 correspond to the accommodating holes 4 one by one, and each accommodating hole 4 can be cleaned simultaneously and independently, and when the box cover 2 is covered on the preservation box body 1, the plurality of groups of cleaning components 7 and the corresponding accommodating holes 4 are in the same vertical direction, and the cleaning components 7 can be moved to the bottom of the accommodating holes 4 to complete the cleaning work.

[0034] Based on the above structure, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 3 A receiving portion 8 is also provided in the storage box body 1. A receiving groove 10 is provided on the side of the receiving portion 8 close to the bearing portion 3, and the receiving portion 8 is located at the bottom end of the bearing portion 3. The cross-sectional size of the receiving groove 10 is smaller than the size of the lower end surface of the bearing portion 3, so as to ensure that the edge of the receiving portion 8 can come into contact with the bearing portion 3. The receiving portion 8 can serve as the lower support of the bearing portion 3. The cleaning component 7 can at least move to the contact position between the accommodating hole 4 and the receiving portion 8. The receiving groove 10 of the receiving portion 8 can be used to collect soil or other foreign matter on the side wall of the accommodating hole 4 scraped off by the cleaning component 7.

[0035] Specifically, each cleaning assembly 7 includes a support spring 71 installed on the top surface of the groove 6, and the movable end of the support spring 71 is connected to a cleaning plate 72, and the cross-sectional shape of the cleaning plate 72 and the receiving hole 4 are both circular, and the cross-sectional dimensions are consistent, so that the cleaning plate 72 can enter the receiving hole 4 and be consistent with the size of the receiving hole 4, so that the side wall of the cleaning plate 72 can come into contact with the side wall of the receiving hole 4, and scrape off the soil or other foreign matter on the side wall of the receiving hole 4.

[0036] When cleaning the inside of the preservation box body 1, open the box cover 2, take out several or all the sampling bottles 5 first, and use a cleaning tool to sweep the soil or other foreign matter on the upper end surface of the supporting part 3 through the receiving hole 4 into the receiving groove 10 of the receiving part 8. After the box cover 2 is opened, the supporting spring 71 is in an extended state, and the box cover 2 is re-covered on the upper end of the preservation box body 1. During the covering process, several cleaning plates 72 enter several corresponding receiving holes 4. During the process of contact and movement between the cleaning plates 72 and the side walls of the receiving holes 4, the soil or other foreign matter on the side walls are scraped into the receiving groove 10.

[0037] In order to facilitate the staff to take the sampling bottle 5, the height from the upper end surface of the accommodating hole 4 to the bottom of the receiving groove 10 is less than the height of the sampling bottle 5, so that the sampling bottle 5 can be higher than the upper end surface of the supporting part 3. The upper section of the supporting part 3 is lower than the upper end surface of the preservation box body 1, so that the staff can take out the sampling bottle 5 without the help of other tools.

[0038] Secondly, the receiving portion 8 is slidably arranged with the storage box body 1, so that the receiving portion 8 can be easily pulled out of the storage box body 1, and the soil or other foreign matter collected in the receiving groove 10 can be cleared out of the box body. Figure 5 A slide bar 11 is installed at the bottom of the receiving portion 8. In order to balance the sliding of the receiving portion 8, two slide bars 11 can be set correspondingly, and are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the midline of the moving direction of the receiving portion 8. A slide groove 12 for the slide bar 11 to slide is set in the storage box body 1. Two slide grooves 12 are opened corresponding to the slide bar 11. A handle 15 is set on the outside of the receiving portion 8 to facilitate dragging the receiving portion 8, making the movement of the receiving portion 8 easier. In order to facilitate the fixing of the receiving portion 8 and the storage box body 1, the two are locked by a lock buckle 13.

[0039] In this example, the cleaning component 7 also supports the sampling bottle 5. Figure 4 When the sampling bottle 5 is not placed, the accommodating hole 4 is cleaned. When the sampling bottle 5 is placed, the cleaning component 7 contacts the sampling bottle 5. Specifically, the bottom surface of the cleaning plate 72 is set to be arc-shaped, which can be matched with the bottle cap of the sampling bottle 5. When the cleaning plate 72 contacts the sampling bottle 5, the bottle cap enters the arc-shaped part to improve the fit.

[0040] In order to ensure the stability of the cleaning plate 72 moving upward when the box cover 2 is closed, a support tube 9 is provided on the outside of the support spring 71. The inner diameter of the support tube 9 is consistent with the diameter of the cleaning plate 72. The height of the support tube 9 is consistent with the distance from the top of the groove 6 to the bearing part 3. When the sampling bottle 5 pushes the cleaning plate 72 upward, until the support tube 9 contacts the upper end surface of the bearing part 3, the cleaning plate 72 enters the support tube 9 and slides upward along the inner wall of the support tube 9. The support tube 9 limits the part of the upper end of the sampling bottle 5 exposed from the bearing part 3, which further ensures the stability of the sampling bottle 5. The support tube 9 also prevents the cleaning plate 72 from shaking when the storage box body 1 is carried and moved.
